World Travel Market (WTM) London, 10 - 13 November 2008,

The World Travel Market is an exclusive trade-only event dedicated to bringing together leading industry buyers and sellers for vital business-to-business opportunities. The move of the show from Earls Court to the Excel Centre in the London Docklands prompted a huge increase in the number of visitors to the show which totalled 22 107 people over the 4 days of the event. A total of 4 888 businesses and 184 countries exhibited at this, the largest venue on a single London site. The Zulu kingdom will once again be represented on the South African Tourism stand.

General Public: March 14th - 15th 2009,10am - 6pm
The International Tourism Exchange (ITB) is known throughout the world as the leading trade fair for the global tourism industry. Its leading position as a meeting place is underlined by the fact that more than three quarters of exhibitors and just under 30% of trade visitors come from outside of Germany. The exhibition is the ideal forum for communication and marketing for the worldwide tourism industry and is the ideal forum for exhibitors to get their messages out to the trade and the general public. The Zulu Kingdom will once again be represented on the South African Tourism stand.

The Getaway Show is an annual, national, interactive and informative showcase for all outdoor-product suppliers, as well as travel and tourism-related marketers. Appearing in South Africa's three major cities, the show offers exhibitors the chance to communicate directly with outdoor, adventure travel and ecotourism enthusiasts- many of them Getaway magazine readers.

As part of its domestic marketing strategy Tourism KZN has been involved with these shows for a number of years. Our continued participation has enabled us to negotiate excellent floor space rates with the organisers, which are then passed on to the trade.
